Welcome back to the latest episode of the Nuggets Ink podcast! In today's discussion, our very own beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert are back to catch up on the latest happenings in the world of Denver Nuggets. One of the most exciting topics on our agenda is the highly anticipated arrival of Russell Westbrook, who is expected to join our team in free agency.
As we eagerly await Westbrook's arrival, one question that comes to mind is whether he still has what it takes to lead us to the NBA Finals at the age of 36. We all know he's bound to be a fan favorite here in the Mile High city, but can he truly make a significant impact on the court? And more importantly, who else on our team can complement his style of play and make up a strong second unit?
Another topic on our radar is the recent departure of KCP and its potential impact on our starting five. Has their absence affected our performance this season? On the bright side, have we gained more depth on our team compared to last year?
Unfortunately, it's not all good news as we discuss the unfortunate injury of rookie DaRon Holmes II. In his very first Summer League game, he ruptured his Achilles tendon, leaving us to wonder how this will affect our plans for the upcoming season. But let's not dwell on the negative too much, as we also touch upon the Nuggets' recent performances in Las Vegas and what we can learn from them.
On a different note, with the Paris Olympics just around the corner, we can't help but wonder which of our star players, Nikola Jokic or Jamal Murray, has a better chance of bringing home a medal. Weighing their strengths and past performances, who do you think will come out on top?
